What's in My Bag - Spring 2016

Play with your equipment. Mix it up. The clubs you put in your bag dictate how you play the game. This is how I'm playing this spring.

Driver - Titleist 975D
Hybrid - Ben Hogan Edge CFT 17*
Irons - Ben Hogan Apex RedLine 4-E
Iron - Ben Hogan Apex Producer 9 (left-handed)
Wedges - Titleist Vokey 52, 56, 60
Putter - John Reuter Bulls Eye

No fairway woods, one hybrid, and a left-handed club. Really, I only need the thirteen clubs to get round the course in fine shape.

The left-handed 9-iron is the ultimate trouble club. Next to a tree or other object with no right-handed swing available? Ball beside a deep bunker you would have to take your stance in to swing right-handed?

A little chipping stroke will do, and it's not that hard to learn how to swing from the other side. Let's see how many strokes it saves me this year.

[That's the right-hander's version of this post. Maybe you could put a right-handed 9-iron in your bag and see what goes down.]
